Current Special

Attention 2012 Seniors!

The current special I'm running is just for you! 

Book your senior session between now and February 28th and receive 50% off your session fee!  Senior sessions are scheduled to take place from May to October.  Session choices include Traditional and Digital Sessions.

Current prices for MKP sessions are as follows:

The Traditional Session - $75. It's ideal for those who do not want the hassle of finding a quality photo lab for printing images. I offer a wide variety of photo sizes and paper selections along with an in-person consultation for purchasing. Once selections have been made, I process the photos with my printing lab, ensuring the color quality of each image. The traditional session fee does not include the cost of prints, though packages are available.

The Digital Session - $300. This session includes all of the above as well as a CD of all images from the session with a signed release allowing you to print as you choose. This option gives the most flexibility as it allows you: to preserve all your images for an unlimited period of time, share your images with friends and family, post your pics on your facebook site, and best of all, print any of your images at any time. This session also includes a 20% discount on all prints/products/packages ordered through MKP.

Both sessions include my time and talent for up to 3 hours at 1-2 locations, unlimited clothing changes and poses, travel up to 50 miles (fees apply for distances further than this), a private, online proofing gallery for viewing within two weeks of the session, and an unlimited number of photos taken during the session.

Baby B

Over Thanksgiving I was able to photograph this wonderful little boy...I guess I am a little behind on the blog since that was a few weeks ago!  Anyways, little B was just fantastic and completely fascinated by my camera - or the ceiling fan, I'm not sure which! :)  Enjoy a few moments from that session!

The Roberts!

A HUGE THANK YOU to The Roberts Family!  I had a blast, but you guys know I always do with you :)  We spent a few hours (with a nap for the lil one and some football in between) taking some family pictures.  Here are some of my favorites of the session and yes, the one with little man without his shoes is included!  I hope you guys enjoy the photos as much as I did taking them for you!

But we did get a little smile in the end :)

I Heart Faces - Silhouette

This week's theme at iheartfaces is Silhouette.  My first thought was of a picture I took of the Hulvey family posted below.  But then I thought, rather than post something I already had, why not look for something new.  This past summer my husband and I visited New Bern, NC and traveled the 40 minutes or so to Pine Knoll Shores and went to check out the Aquarium.  I had just gotten a new camera and was itching to test it out.  There were a lot of kids there who LOVED the shark tank, of course :)  Below is a young man who was running up and down the length of the tank pretending he was "swimming" with the sharks.  I noticed him stop so I snapped this picture quickly and tried to figure out what made him pause.  See how long it takes you to spot the shark!



While you're at it, make sure you stop on over at iheartfaces and check out the other entries!

Hulvey Family

This past Saturday was a fun little family shoot with the Hulvey family at their farm near Staunton. The farm was beautiful and I think I could have easily stayed all day finding different places to shoot! It was a little chilly since it was first thing in the morning and it's now that time of year, but the Hulvey's were such good sports allowing me to drag them up one hill, down another, and all over their farm! Their boys were so full of energy and hit the ground running, but it was fun keeping up. Thanks again and I hope you enjoy your pictures!!

Website

Finally, I have a websiet set up for client viewing!!  Visit http://www.michellekirbyphotography.com/ to check it out! :)

Wedding

My husband and I were invited to the wedding of one of his friends and fellow coach.  It was held at the groom's family farm.  It was an absolutely beautiful location for a wedding and reception!  While I wasn't the photographer for the wedding, I did snap a few pictures during the wedding before (gasp!) putting my camera up to enjoy the reception. 

Zoo/Safari Park

Some pictures snapped from a field trip at The Natural Bridge Zoo and The Safari Park of Natural Bridge.

Homecoming Week

It's been Homecoming Week this past week at school.  Here are some pictures from a fantastic time!

Starting with the powderpuff game...

And the bonfire...

The Homecoming parade around the track...

A little of the court...

And then the big game...

 Congrats to our 'boys of fall' on their victory!
